Icecast - Mar 2007 - Parsing /admin/stats with PHP

I am trying to connect to my icecast server with the following php 
script and I keep getting an error. Script and errot follow:

$server = "www.dallypost.com:8000";
$user = "admin";
$passw = "my_pass_word";
$mountpoint = "/DallyPostRadio.ogg";

$fp = fopen("http://$user:$passw@$server/admin/stats","r")
         or die("Error reading Icecast data from $server.");

______________________________________________


*Warning*: fopen(http://...@www.dallypost.com:8000/admin/stats) 
[function.fopen <http://www.dallypost.com/a/radio/function.fopen>]: 
failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.0 401 Authentication 
Required in */var/www/a/radio/server_data.php* on line *8*
Error reading Icecast data from www.dallypost.com:8000.


I sure will appreciate any help

Hi!

Try to use curl for http query. Maybe fopen does not support Basic  
authentication.

Code will be somethin like this: (not tested)

$server = "www.dallypost.com:8000";
$user = "admin";
$passw = "my_pass_word";
$mountpoint = "/DallyPostRadio.ogg";

$url = "http://$user:$passw@$server/admin/stats";

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
$statuspage = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close ($ch);

if (curl_errno($ch)) {
    $curl_error = curl_error($ch);
    die( "Error reading Icecast data from $server. Curl error:  
$curl_error" );
}
